PROCLAIrIs HIS INNOCENCE.
Had No Intention of Committing
Contempt.

Contempt.
SAN Francisco, October HI. H.
Lowenthal, attorney and counsel for
the firm of Wing Luen & Co., from
whose safe papers duplicating certain
persons in the late jury-fixing cases
were taken week ago, was tried to-
day for contempt of court in Disregard
ing a search warrant issued and en-
deavoring 10 obstruct the same by
means of a writ Of replevin. Lowen-
thai testified in his own behalf, and
when asked by counsel if he caused
the issuance of the writ of replevin for
the malicious purpose of interfering
with legal process, he replied in the
negative and said it was his desire to
have the papers placed in the posses
sion Of the Sheriff, in order
to have some court determine the
right of the parties. He further
stated that if he knew that the officers
were looking for papers that they
thought might criminate him and
others he would have made no objec.
ton to the search. He disclaimed all
contempt. When asked why he had
Foreman Menzies brought before
Judge Boland for contempt, he answer
ed because Menzies had ran away
with the papers. The case was then
continued till Monday afternoon. AL
of the papers are now in the posses
sion OF the Grand Jury and will be
brought into court on that day, and
those not mentioned in the search
warrant will be returned to the firm.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
Chicago, October 1.-Preparations
are nearly completed for the formal
opening on Monday of the first really
international military encampment
ever held in the Unit ID States. The
prospects are that it will be decided
success. The regular army will be
represented by detachments OF infant
ry, cavalry and artillery, with navy
blue-jackets and marines from the
United States steamer Michigan, and
the militia of Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Iowa, Illinois and Kentucky will have
battalion or full regimental represen-
tation. Besides these there will be
fifty or sixty single companies OF
militia to swell the infantry list. The
cavalry display promises to be fine
one, some of the crack troopers OF the
country being on the way here now.

THE NORTHERN SEAS.
Rescue of a sole Survivor "A
Murderer I'm Custody.


SAN Francisco, October 1.-The
United States revenue cutter Bear
arrived here from Ounalaska this
evening. She reached Ounalaska from
st. Michaels August oath, and gave
Frank Fuller, the murderer of Arch
bishop Seghers, into the custody Of
the United States Marshal.
On the same day she seized the
British sealing schooner Ada with
1900 skins, and the American schooner
Allie J. Alger with 1900. A few days
later the American schooner Silvia
Handy, with 1900 skins, was seized,
and all the vessels were turned over
to the United States Marshal at
Ounalaska. r-.
The Bear reports the total catch OF
the whaling fleet up to August 9th as
seventy-four whales.
Among the passengers on the cutter
was James B. Vincent, the only sur
vivor of thirty-six men on the whaler
Napoleon, which was wrecked in the
ice in the Arctic, in May, 1885, the
particulars of which were published
in the Associated Press dispatches a
week ago. Since the time of the
wreck, until rescued by the Bear,
Vincent has been living with small
band of Indians on the Siberian
coast.
Reports received month ago that
the Bear was leaking badly seem to
have some foundation, as it was found
necessary to keep men at the pumps
most of the time ON the trip from the
Arctic. The Bear left the cutter Rush
at Ounalaska on August 9th.

SAN Francisco, October Henry
Waterhouse, a member of the new
House of Mobiles of the Hawaiian
Kingdom, arrived here from Honolulu
to-day, on the steamship Mariposa.
He brings with him communication
to be forwarded to the Foreign Office
at London in regard to the Hawaiian
loan Of 100000 subscribed for in
London. The communication is
signed by w. L. Green, Godfrey
Brown, Lorrin A. Thurston and Clar-
ence w. Ashford, members Of the
Cabinet, and reads as follows: The
report published in London papers
that the Hawaiian Government had
repudiated the English loan was a
misstatement of the facts. The
new government is and always
has been ready to execute
any form of bonds for the whole
amount wanted and subscribed for,
which any competent authority, Eng
lish or Hawaiian, may decide does
not contravene with the terms of the
Act authorizing the loans, and it will
allow out of that sum all charges
which the same authority may decide
are authorized by said Acts, copies Of
which are and have been in the hands
of the Hawaiian financial agents in
: London.

The President further spoke in praise

Of the speeches the visitors were hur-
ried to the train as soon as they could
be freed from the surrounding multi

WASHINGTON, October 1.-The Sec
retary of the Interior has received,
through the Commissioner of Agri-
culture, a communication from Gov
ernor Leslie, of Montana, transmit
ting report from the veterinary sur
geon of that Territory relating to the
disease known as glanders existing
among horses within the Grow reser-
ervation, and also letter from Indian
Agent Williams on the same subject.
The veterinarian, after investigation,
is fully satisfied that the disease pre-
walls to limited extent among the
horses on the reservation, and says
no regards it as most important that
steps should be taken to stamp out the
disease while in it's incipiency. The
Commissioner of Agriculture recon-
mends that, as it's bureau of animal
industry has no jurisdiction within the
reservation the Interior Department
will take such steps as are necessary
to cause the destruction of affected
horses, in order to prevent the spread
of the disease and to protect the lives
of people, as we'll as of animals, of
adjoining States and Territories.

STARTLING ACCUSATION.
COlOred NIasOns Charged With
Murder.

NEW ORLEANS, October L. A
Picayune special from Greenwood,
Miss, says that warrants have been
issued for the arrest of fifteen colored
Masons, on a charge of numbering a
man named Taylor. Several murders
of mysterious nature have occurred
near there in the past two years, and
the whites claimed that the negro
Masonic Order made it practice to
avenge the death or injury OF any
of their craft. Some time
ago negro was killed in fight by
Harry Taylor, and few days after
wards Taylor's body was found in the
river. An Aninvestigation was instituted
and the result was a verdict of the
jury that the man was murdered by
members of the negro Masonic lodges
at Dry Bayou and Shell Mound, and
their arrest was recommended. Con-
siderable excitement prevails.

NEW YORK, October e1.-Robert B.
Porter, the statistician b and tariff
writer, has returned from visit to
Ireland, where he left matters in about
as bad shape as the newspaper ac-
counts have represented them to be-.
He addressed meeting at Mitchels-
town Just before O'Brien's arrest, and
was shadowed by the constabulary for
his temerity. They saw American
fire in his eye, and did not disturb
him, however. He says Ireland is
police-ridden. Mitchelstown, for in
stance, is a peaceful village of 1000
people. There was only Que arrest
there for crime last year, and only two
in three years. Yet 100 constables
are stationed there, at an expense OF
$40 900 year. What is still worse is
that the potato crop is poor, and there
is no prospect of better times. Recent
statistics show that one out of every
ten people in Ireland has received aid
of some kind in the last year, and that
in at least six provinces more than
half the people have had to ask po
lice aid.

other great sensation was occasioned
to-day by the publication of a new
episode in the Sarah Althea Hill suit
Ex-Judge D. S. Terry, one of the coun-
sci for Sarah Althea Sharon in the
well-known suit against the executors
of the estate of the late Senator Sharon
has filed an affidavit in the Superior
Court, in which he charges that one
of the defendants counsel, who was
an ex-Judee, during the trial of the
case in the Superior Court offered
Judge Sullivan, before whom the case
was tried, checks duly signed with
the amount left blank, to 0e filed in
by the Judge, if he could be tempted
to accept the bribe, with such sum as
he might choose as a consideration for
deciding the case in favor of defend
ant. The only one OF Sharon's coun-
sci who is an ex-Judge is Oliver p.
Evans. 1t is understood that Judge
Evans called upon Judge Sullivan after
the affidavit had been made public
and demanded to know if he was au-
thority for the statement, but Judge
Sullivan declined to give a definite
answer.
A sANGUINARY RESULT FEARED.
Among the few people who are cog
infant Of all or part of the facts of this
affair it has created a profound sensa-
ton. Said one gentleman to-day
"This is the most serious matter that
ever concerned the bench and bar of
this city, and how it can end without
bloodshed / cannot conceive. Judge
Terry is everywhere regarded as a
man Of truth. Judge Evans, l under
stand denies the charge in toto and
insists that he is the party pointed at.
Judge Sullivan is regarded rs an up
right Judge and a man OF honor.
Terry, if he was informed of the OPEN
check offer, could only have had one
source of information the party to
whom the offer was made, if it was
made.

UNDER NEW RULES.
what was Done Ou the Diamond d
Yesterday.

SAN Francisco, October 1.-The
new rules were given first trial in a
schedule game to-day between the
Atlas and Greenhood & Morans. The
latter club won by score OF II to 4
after close and interesting game
The public generally were somewhat
at sea for time, but soon appreciated
the fact that it took more men to play
the game than simply the pitcher and
catcher. Cahill, late of the Indiana
polls team, occupied the box for the
Capital City boys, but Borchers struck
out more men, and had less hits
scored against him than the Indianian.
THE PHILLIEs' SUCCESS.
PHILADELPHIA, October 1.-When
the two ball teams came on the grounds
for to-day's game the men looked
commercially clean. When the game
was over the eighteen athletes retired
to their club house and hotel covered
with mud from head to foot. The
fielding of both teams was excellent;
considering the wretched condition Of
the ground. Conway was badly pun
ished by the home players. The score
stood: Philadelphia 13. Boston 4.
